During her glorious years as a sex worker in '90s and early 2000s Miami, Máxima documented the wild escapades she shared with her glamorous trans Latinx friends.

As past and present collapse, the images of their unfolding trajectories open a broader exploration of the conditions that have shaped their fates.

A self-aware data cloud searches for its planetary body from the ocean to the desert at the end of the world.
